How do you registered

[Joe Gondek]

If you are required to register in order to post here.
Than shouldn't there be instructions provided here on the registration process?

So what is the criteria required to become a registered hobbyist?
Is there a cost invovled ?
How long does it take to be approved?

X Marks has some of the most talented hobbyists. They create things just for the love of doing it. The creative process is what is most important to them, they are not trying to make a profit from the things they create or to run a business. In an effort to support this creative process we have searched for a way for our hobbyists to show off the things they have made and even sell their extra items without having to take out an advertisers space to do so.
To qualify as a Registered Hobbyist you must:
Be an individual. No companies or business will be accepted as a Hobbyist.
Be an active and participating member of the forum.
Be registered with the Forum.

The benefit of registering as a hobbyist is that you can put your work before our members, get reviews, and occasionally sell a piece, without the expense of an Advertiser's Ad.

Registered Hobbyists will be allowed to offer, for sale, one (1) item per month, by posting it to the "Registered Hobbyist" section of the forum.

To let everyone know that you are a Registered Hobbyist you will have a custom title under your username.

To inquire about becoming a Registered Hobbyist please contact the Forum Owner, Steve Ashton, via email, at: steve@xmarksthescot.com.

Thank you Joe for pointing out that the notice at the top of this section with the explanation had somehow gone away.
I have just re-activated it.

If this is not a good enough explanation please send me an email.
